- An automobile tire is shown in the figure below. The tire is made of rubber with a uniform density of 1.10 × 103 kg/m³. The tire can be modeled as consisting of two flat sidewalls and a tread region. Each of th sidewalls has an inner radius of 16.5 cm and an outer radius of 30.5 cm as shown, and a uniform thickness of 0.675 cm. The tread region can be approximated as having a uniform thickness of 2.50 cm (that i its inner radius is 30.5 cm and outer radius is 33.0 cm as shown) and a width of 19.4 cm. What is the moment of inertia (in kg m2) of the tire about an axis perpendicular to the page through its center?

Each can be modeled as a cylinder of nonzero thickness. What is the inner and outer radius for each case? What is the formula for the moment of inertia for a thick-walled cylinder? How can you find the mass of a hollow cylinder?…arrow_forwardThere are three cylindrical vases on the table, none of them is taller than 40 cm. The firstvase can be filled with 2 dl of water, the second one with 3 dl, and the third with more than 6 dl water. The area of the cross section of the first vase is 10 cm^2, the area of the cross section of the other two vases is 20 cm^2. There is the same amount (volume) of water in each vase. It can be observed that if a specific tuning fork is placed just above the vases, its sound is getting louder. The width of the bottom of each vase is 1 cm, the speed of sound in air is 340 m/s, and the frequency of the tuning fork is less than 1 kHz. a) What is the volume of water in the vases? b) What is the frequency of the tuning fork? c) What is the height of the third vase?arrow_forwardPlease help.
